Kings unveil new CS:GO roster

23-6-2017 08:13

Kings Gaming Club have formed a new Australian squad, which includes notable players from the scene.

Following the news of ex-Immunity’s move, another brand new Australian organisation enters the pack, with Kings Gaming Club securing the services of former Winterfox player Chris "⁠emagine⁠" Rowlands, two ex-Tainted Minds members, Jay "⁠Liazz⁠" Tregillgas and Travis "⁠wizard⁠" Richardson, completed by the additions of Jordan "⁠Hatz⁠" Bajic and Simon "⁠Sico⁠" Williams from AVANT GARDE before their disbandment last month.

Launched this month by their CEO and Founder, Annabelle “Haiimbelle” Harper, the new organisation “aims to be one of the best teams in Australia, with bootcamps before LANs, coaching and the right support to make their dreams possible.”

The trio in the middle from left to right - Sico, wizard and Hatz - will represent the Kings' colours

In a statement given to HLTV.org by the team's captain, Travis “wizard” Richardson:

"I’m excited to be joining forces with Kings Gaming Club and essentially building the brand from the ground up. We, the players share the same goals and aspirations and look forward to showcasing the prowess of this roster and representing the country overseas."

Kings have been invited to the fourth edition of the ESL Australia & NZ Championship, due to the new roster fulfilling the three-man core requirement after winning Season 3 Finals in May (with wizard attending as a stand-in). The team has expressed "they want to play in ZEN League [Season 2]", which consists of a ~$37,000 prize pool and the opportunity to compete against Asian teams on home turf.

Kings are now:

Travis "⁠wizard⁠" Richardson
Chris "⁠emagine⁠" Rowlands
Jay "⁠Liazz⁠" Tregillgas
Jordan "⁠Hatz⁠" Bajic
Simon "⁠Sico⁠" Williams

Rickeh = Nifty. Rickeh also could play instead of Nifty. For my opinions they are same player.

2017-06-23 14:02

Nifty > Rickeh since Nifty is also IGL, Skill wise roughly the same but the added fact that Nifty is also calling makes him more valuable

Actually, I love both players. But does Nifty just rekt to lower tier team?(Tyloo, ex-immunity at Asia Minor). And we didn't see him playing against higher tier yet, why I would say Rickeh = Nifty? Because I believe that Nifty is get ready to play against a higher team at Major Qualifier.

2017-06-26 12:01

Remember how valuable an IGL is to a team though, Nifty is literally irreplaceable on Renegades

This roster lowkey looks pretty good. The MDL in Australia is actually be quite competitive this season... there are like four pretty decent teams that could compete for a LAN spot.
